I remember watching the Super Bowl hoping the Panthers would pull it off and then watching them fall so short. Growing up, my little league baseball team won a championship, that's the last of glory for me. The Panthers are the only team that is tied to my heart, the Bucs Monday Night Game I was screaming and yelling every time D-Will of Stewart busted off a huge run. The Bears game when they couldn't stop Smitty at all. Most of my memories of the Panthers are recent ones, I didn't become a fan until around 2000. It wasn't until I started playing football the I really started to pay attention to the NFL.

Okay so now to bring it all together. Has a team you lived and breathed ever won it all?

What do you think you will do if the Panthers do win it all? (riot, drink even more than you currently were while watching the game, take your clothes off and run naked through the streets)

I have been a lifelong Phillies fan and watched them win 2 World series including last year. It was awesome but I think the panthers winning would be even bigger since I will be there in the stands rooting them on.

I like to think of myself as a spoiled sports fan, of course with UNC winning the title 3 times in my life time ;)

Then in '05 the White Sox won the World Series which probably has been my favorite title to bring home. This year hopefully the Blackhawks will win the Cup.

My really only championship defeats were the Panthers in the SB and UNC baseball the first year they lost to OSU, just because they were one win away, then f-ing Garrett Gore had to throw the ball away!

But if the Panthers were to win it, I would most likely shed a tear or two.

Been a lifelong Oakland A's fan, so seeing them win a championship (especially against the GD Giants) was great. My high school football team won district, and that was a pretty awesome feeling, and my other ball team has won tourney's and city championships too, but nothing could come anywhere close to how I would feel if Carolina won it all. I don't know what I would do, but it would involve a week off of work for sure. I'd also be happy to recoup the $100 a year minimum that I put down on the Panthers to win the superbowl. So far I'm down about $2500, but one good year could bring it back!

Hurricanes fan, so I know the feeling of investment and the team winning it all. Great feeling, best feeling you can have as a fan.

When the Panthers lost that was pretty bad, Once the kick went out of bounds I kinda saw the rest of the game flash before my eyes and saw us losing the game on a FG. Sucked.

Also a UNC fan and it has been awesome winning twice since 2005.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Let's be completely honest about this... Our WR room is AT and a bunch of question marks. Thielen is the only guy we know who knows the route tree completely, understands play calls and can regularly get open/beat close coverage when necessary. He's long in the tooth, isn't the speediest guy on the field but he plays like a pro, starting level wide receiver. Xavier, last season looked great at first, but man he kind of petered out down the stretch and would disappear in a number of games. He wasn't reliable on routes or getting open and where he was supposed to be a king at contested catches, he often looked a bit intimidated. I'm not saying he's a washout by any means. Anyone with his size, speed and catch radius could make it big in the NFL, but can he do it? He'll need to show more than he did in the preseason before we can really rely on him as a WR1 or WR2.  Coker was a revelation last season, he really played way above his (non)draft status and flashed multiple times in games and was a steady performer. What we need to find out, though, is whether he was benefiting from being an unknown that wasn't getting maximum effort from opposing DBs or if he was just outworking and outhustling everyone on the field. We should find out this season. We sure as hell didn't find out much in the pre-season (from him or any receiver or QB for that matter). He's still a question mark, but I think he has the look of the real deal. He might be this generation's next Thielen. Now, let's talk about Tet. High first round draft pick, first true WR off the board this year. Stellar career out west in college. Has the swagger of the WR1. And man, y'all are going to get mad about this but... he comes across as a mook. And in the pre-season he performed, well, not so great against poor opposition of second and third stringers. Yeah, he caught that one moonshot ball in the first game but really, nothing else lighting the place up. Rookie endzone drop in that game, too. He's still young and adjusting, I'm sure, but I was hoping to see something of a breakthrough kind of guy. I'm still looking. Hunter Renfro? Gosh, I hope he can make the team and make a comeback to his old form. It would be such a great story. But maybe neither one of those happens. We won't know until Tuesday and then, if he makes it past there it could be weeks. So, TL;DR: AT is all we can bank on right now. We couldn't afford to let him go considering the number of unknowns we'd be throwing out there for our QB, who himself is still an unknown. One thing to add: Our receivers coaching group has their work cut out for them. I hope they are up to the task, but the pre-season gave me little reason to believe in them. And I really need something to believe in here in Carolina.

      2025 Roster Cuts

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Linebacker is the biggest need - I hope we figure out a way to address it. Krys Barnes is the only one who even moderately flashed.  Super nervous about Trevin/Rozeboom as a duo (Still like Trevin) I'd be excited if we had a better vet to mentor Trevin.  Or a better younger guy to support Rozeboom.  They just don't fit well and it may be a big problem against the run, even with our DL much improved.
